Nif's Awesome Asian Chicken Thighs

Submitted by Nif_H

"I'm so happy that this turned out so well! I added a bunch of ingredients that sounded good and they really are good together. The skin was left on these because it crisped up nicely under the broiler. I served this with rice and veggies. Enjoy!"

We loved the flavor of this chicken. I forgot that it needed time to marinate and only did so for about 20 minutes. The chicken still inherited great flavor. I think the basting helped with that, too. I served this over rice since there was enough sauce created while cooking. Thank you!

Easy to make and great flavor. I scaled this dish down to 4 thighs and it worked perfectly. Loved the finishing touch of the honey. Served this with some Korean eggplant.

Wow, oh wow! Awesome is right. I made these as directed and marinated them for almost 24 hours. I really like that is these have a wonderful savory sweet flavor. I will definitely be making these again. Thanks Nif. Made for the Asian round of ZWT9 for Team Tasty Testers.
